Pediatric Considerations in Disaster Settings
Man-made and natural disasters--including armed conflict, environmental catastrophes, forced displacements, and epidemics--affect thousands worldwide each year, causing loss of homes, livelihoods, and possessions. Complex humanitarian emergencies are increasing due to international conflict and civil war. The COVID-19 pandemic further underscored the need for efficient and equitable disaster responses, particularly for those in low- and middle-income countries. Pediatric-specific considerations in disaster response, especially in humanitarian emergencies and resource-constrained settings already burdened by preventable illness and limited healthcare access, remain an often overlooked yet critical component. Children make up a disproportionately large percentage of disaster victims due to their developmental and physical vulnerabilities. Those with complex healthcare needs or disabilities are at even greater risk. The devastating consequences of gaps in preparedness and response have also been demonstrated in well-resourced settings, as seen with Hurricane Katrina. Previous research has called for better training for medical trainees and disaster relief workers to improve pediatric disaster preparedness. Yet, programs specifically addressing children's needs are in short supply, and relief workers often lack the expertise to provide appropriate care. There is also a persistent gap in guidelines advocating for children's unique needs in disaster settings. This book seeks to address these gaps. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Considerations in Disaster Settings is a multi-institutional, multi-author collaboration representing perspectives from around the globe. This book summarizes evidence-based guidelines and real-world experiences from professionals who have cared for children in disaster settings across various resource contexts. It addresses an urgent need for guidance in recent and ongoing conflicts and disasters, equips healthcare professionals and public health workers with the skills to collaborate effectively in disaster response, and educates readers on adapting interventions and advocacy strategies to meet children's unique needs in any resource setting.

Detoxify
Help relieve chronic illness and holistically bolster your immune system by minimizing exposure to immune-disrupting chemicals, with this approachable, revolutionary book and 21-day program from integrative rheumatologist Dr. Aly Cohen. Immune conditions and autoimmune diseases are on a meteoric rise in our modern-day world with the biggest triggers existing all around us. With an environment laden with untested and unregulated chemicals, radiation, and light and noise pollution, these immune disrupting chemicals (IDCs) trigger our bodies to go haywire and develop chronic conditions. And while variables like age, medication use, and overall health status factor into the performance of one's immune system, doctors are struggling to help their patients find livable solutions for their chronic illness. In Detoxify, integrative rheumatologist Dr. Aly Cohen, with over twenty years practicing on the front lines of clinical medicine, proposes a life-saving solution to minimizing disrupting immune system triggers and activating the body's natural detoxification systems. Using clear and accessible language, Dr. Cohen demonstrates the surprising ways in which environmental toxins impact our bodies, linking specific symptoms and illnesses to everyday exposures. You'll uncover what's lurking in our water, food, personal care products, and household goods. More importantly, you'll discover simple and affordable steps to lead a more toxin-free life. Dr. Cohen empowers us no matter our lifestyle or budget, to make small, practical shifts that can substantially increase our quality of life and help to thwart future health risks. Featuring Dr. Cohen's 4A's of environmental health navigation, full-body survey to assess toxin risk, as well as a 21-day plan to significantly reduce environmental exposure and enhance your detoxification process, this book is packed with valuable resources, including lab test recommendations, DIY household cleaner and personal care recipes, Dr. Cohen's Detoxify Food Pyramid(c), and over two dozen delicious, detoxifying recipes. Detoxify is your ultimate guide for making easy and practical lifestyle changes that can alleviate chronic illness, strengthen your immune system, and ultimately extend your lifespan.
